    Still haven’t read one of those novelettes? Lost your summer issues of Asimov’s<\/i> and F&SF<\/i> when your roof leaked? The magazines in question will likely hook you up with copies of my stories if you ask, but I’m also happy to do so myself; just email me<\/a> and we’ll sort it out. Thanks!<\/p>\n
